Bramley Phoenix v Barnsley - Not played against Barnsley this year, but form over the whole season makes me think Barnsley by 14.
Burley v West Park Leeds - Burley are a solid enough side, especially in the pack. WPL were a decent set of individual players against us, but obviously not a group that had played together very often. Suppose it depends on who and if WPL can pull in to put a shirt on, but I'll go either HWO, or Burley by 14.
Castleford v Ossett - Close game I reckon. Maybe home advantage to tip it in Cas's favor by 7?
Halifax Vandals v Wibsey - HWO unfortunately.
Hemsworth v Harrogate Pythons - Away win. Hemsworth going well recently, but the snakes will just be too well drilled and too good out wide. Harrogate by 28.
Sheffield Medicals v Old Otliensians - HWO or Medics by a lot. Otliensians kept coning against us last week and said it was their best performance of the season, but the medics will be far too quick for them and will run them ragged. Medics by 40?
Skipton v Knottingley - HWO or a routine Skipton win. Skipton by 21.
Good luck all, hope the rest of the games all go ahead as planned.

« on: March 23, 2022, 07:44:59 AM »Barnsley v Skipton - Fairly comfortable home win.
Burley v Bramley Phoenix - Game of the week. 2 decent sides but I think the burley pack might just edge it for them.
Harrogate Pythons v Sheffield Medicals - Pythons will be way too much in the forwards and will match Medics in the backs. Comfortable home win, wouldn't be surprised if Pythons manage to hunt down Barnsley for top spot by the end of the season.
Knottingley v Hemsworth - You'd usually say home banker, but Knottla seem to be suffering from availability big time recently. Sad to see it. Hemsworth seem to be on the up over the last few weeks, so I'm going for a tight win for Hemsworth.
Old Otliensians v Halifax Vandals - Away walk over already confirmed by last Sunday.
West Park Leeds v Ossett - WPL had decent individuals last week, but didn't recognise a single one from earlier in the season. Looked to have been pulled together at the last minute to raise a side. Good individuals but poor as a unit. Ossett steady away and not a bad side, going with an Ossett away win.
Wibsey v Castleford - I'm sure it'll be yet another away walk over.
Hope all these walkovers are just a temporary thing while clubs get back on their feet after Covid etc. Way things are looking at the moment, there'll be no such thing as amateur sport in 10 years time. Good luck to everyone for this weekend.

« on: March 16, 2022, 07:26:10 AM »Bramley Phoenix v Knottingley - Toughest game of the week to predict. It'll definitely be a physical one. I'll go with home advantage, Bramley by 3.
Halifax Vandals v West Park Leeds - Next to last home game at Vandals for me (maybe the last one if Wibsey blob in a couple of weeks) Hoping we can get back to winning ways, but expecting a tough game from WPL.
Hemsworth v Castleford - Hemsworth must have been absolutely bouncing after beating Barn$ley last week, what a result that was! Just think when Cas are playing well, they're one of the better teams in the league. So if Cas are anything close to their best, I'm going for a Cas win by 14.
Ossett v Harrogate Pythons - Pythons did what they needed to do against us last week. Finished off chances from our mistakes without ever being overly fancy. Good side, well drilled. I reckon Ossett will be same as us, match them physically, but Harrogate to beat them by being a bit more clinical. Harrogate by 21.
Wibsey v Old Otliensians - What happens if both teams blob?? Draw walkover?? Sad to see so many games cancelled at this level. Next known it before in all my time playing. Just hope the clubs affected can turn things round and it's not the start of the end for amateur sport, like many people keep saying.

Aireborough v Baildon JOKER - This could be a huge score if Baildon exploit Aire out wide.
Castleford v Harrogate Pythons - Easy away win for the snakes.
Hemsworth v Halifax Vandals - No comment.
Leeds Corinthians v Sheffield Medics - Routine home win by a couple of scores.
Old Otliensians v Rotherham Phoenix - Game of the week. Expect a fast paced game with a close score. Going with home advantage.
Ossett v Knottingley - Another close one. Think this will be a very physical, abrasive 80 mins. I'm going to tip Ossett for a bit of an upset here with home advantage. Could potentially be some fireworks as well, with a card or two!
Skipton v Wibsey - Are Wibsey going to be a bit hit and miss this year? Expected them to do better against Baildon, maybe discipline might cause them some issues? Still think they'll have enough to beat Skipton though.
Good luck all.

Castleford v Aireborough - Cas backs will have far too much for Aire.
Halifax Vandals v Harrogate Pythons - No comment.
Knottingley v Old Otliensians - I just have a feeling OO's might nick a tight one here.
Rotherham Phoenix v Hemsworth - Another close one, so I'll go with home advantage.
Sheffield Medics v Ossett - Ossett just.
Skipton v Leeds Corinthians - Corinthians easy. JOKER
Wibsey v Baildon - Both had 1 win 1 loss. Both will probably fancy themselves to do well this year based on recruitment. Another very tight one. I'll go with Wibsey to be slightly more physical and just about shade it.
Good luck all.

Aireborough v Halifax Vandals - Not predicting. The game will definitely be more than just pack v pack though. Vandals backs looking pretty sharp last week and during pre-season.
Baildon v Castleford - Baildon were a decent side last week. Came back at us very strongly in the 2nd half. Some useful looking backs recruited during the summer that they either didn't seem to use effectively, or luckily for us, who made errors at crucial times. Cas are always hit and miss, so going with home advantage on this one.
Harrogate Pythons v Rotherham Phoenix - Both capable sides on their day. Could go either way, so just going with home advantage again.
Hemsworth v Knottingley - Expected Hemsworth to hammer the students last week with it being so early in the Uni term, so not sure who was missing a few or at full strength? Knottingley seem to be well back by a few on here and finished strong last season, so I'll go with an away win.
Leeds Corinthians v Wibsey - Bet this will be a great one to referee! Sound to be similar in style so expect it to be a physical, abrasive game. Wibsey Salem sound to have done the better recruiting, so I'll back them for an away win.
Old Otliensians v Sheffield Medics - Probably going to be the exact opposite of the Corinthians v Wibsey game. Expect it to be fast paced and free-flowing. Could be a high scorer if both attacks play to their potential. Still early in the term, so I'm gonna back OO's for a home win with a JOKER.
Ossett v Skipton - No idea. I'll go Ossett.
Good luck to everyone.

Halifax Vandals v Baildon - Not predicting my own team, but things are looking ok so far based on pre-season. Brand new coaching team has really got the lads engaged and keen again. Couple of new additions too. Hoping for a better season than the last couple.
Knottingley v Harrogate Pythons - Knottingley to continue the form from the end of last season. Knottingley by 14.
Leeds Corinthians v Ossett - Good time to play Corinthians. they'll still be missing their RL boys for a few more weeks. Ossett had a good season in getting promoted last year, so I'm going for an Ossett win by 7.
Rotherham Phoenix v Aireborough - Aire lucky to stay up last year. Glad they did though, decent set of young lads coming through who probably just need another season or two to become really competitive. Think Roth will have too much for them though. Roth Phoenix by 21. JOKER
Sheffield Medics v Hemsworth - No idea with this one! Are the students back at uni yet? Student teams usually struggle early on, so I'll guess at an away win for Hemsworth by 14.
Skipton v Old Otliensians - Otliensians will have way too much for Skipton. Think it could be Skipton and Aireborough for the drop this year. Going with Otliensians by 30.
Wibsey v Castleford - Been hearing all sorts about Wibsey throwing some serious coin around this summer! You never know whether stories like that are true or just a load of waffle, but they seem to have recruited a few from Bradford Salem and absolutely blitzed Y4 last year, so I reckon they'll be targeting going straight through 3 and upto 2 this year. Tough one to call, Cas can be very hit and miss, but I'm going with Wibsey by 10.
Good luck to everyone. Everyone says it every year, but it really does look like it could be a very competitive league this year!
Knottingley v Harrogate Pythons - Knottingley to continue the form from the end of last season. Knottingley by 14.
Leeds Corinthians v Ossett - Good time to play Corinthians. they'll still be missing their RL boys for a few more weeks. Ossett had a good season in getting promoted last year, so I'm going for an Ossett win by 7.
